This sailboat has been set up for long-distance cruising, and it would take very little for someone to make it ready for sailing oceans or living aboard. She has benefited from a refit over the last year, including installing a Victron 175w solar panel, a Victron MPPT solar charge controller, and a Victron Inverter/ charger, main, stay and headsails, and stack pack. She has also had her mast taken down for cleaning and installing new running rigging. When I bought her, an area of the hull required cutting out and replacing and some weld filling. This was completed by a coded welder to MCA standards.
She is currently available for survey in Essex.
She is fitted with a stern A-frame to attach solar panels, antennas, etc.
Lofrans electric anchor windlass with 60 metres of 10mm chain, 30kg bruce, and a stern anchor.
Yacht Leg Co, yacht legs for drying the boat out on the beach.
The main sail with stack pack and single-line reefing is in excellent condition.
Staysail with Profurl furling system, excellent condition.
Headsail with Profurl furling system, excellent condition.
The lines are all led back to the cockpit, and there are two poles for poling out the headsails for downwind sailing.
Monitor Wind Vane self-steering.
Simrad tiller pilot.
Depth sounder.
Victron solar panel, controller and inverter charger are brand new.
Yanmar 3GM 30 was just serviced, including flushing the coolant system and refurbishing the fuel pump and injectors.
The interior cushions are in very good condition, with thick 4" foam on the seats and 6" foam on the bunks.
Isotherm top-down refrigerator with water cooling.
Jabsco sea toilet.
The shower, vanity, basin and double galley sink are supplied with hot water from a calorifier, which is heated by immersion or engine coolant.
Fuel Tanks and water tanks are estimated to be 400 litres each, which is incredibly large for a 33-foot yacht.
She comes with a tender.
Antifouled with new anodes throughout May 2024.
